Started out with a miss
A gap or a sliding door I could not see myself fitting in, oh what a fool
Another portion of bliss
Another day been wasted I could have been settling in to the groove
Red star riders call it again
Sights only visible to friends
Align the scope so I can see
Absent minded, listening in
Creature still warming to its skin
Watching this unfold
The best view in the house
And I love your ways
And I love all the days
That I find myself beside you
In the break of the waves
If I fall out of shape
Or I fall out of phase
Would you pull me back in orbit
Or come slide off the page?
Its like a drug, I’m away
My head’s still up in the clouds
No idea what I’ll say
No idea when I’ll come down
The little thoughts that I could not hide, once we started diving deeper and the doubt was no longer in sight
Should we let them know? Or keep it all down low?
Red light flashes once again
Cars stop as soon as they begin
I lined the streets that needn’t be
Disney plus, Criterion
Boundaries excised, the floor’s open
I’ll just recoil from this false start
Take hold, the curtains pull apart
And I love your ways
And I love all the days
That I find myself beside you
In the break of the waves
If I fall out of shape
Or I fall out of phase
Would you pull me back in orbit
Or come slide off the page?
If I wanted to stay
If I wanted to change
Would it fall apart around me
Would it all be erased?
Oh internal debates
An eternal malaise
I might be my own worst enemy
An awkward full case
I can hold you in summer
Would you hold me by winter flames?
Yeah I know it’s still early
But I could lie here until it gets late
And I love your ways
And I love all the days
That I find myself beside you
In the break of the waves
If I fall out of shape
Or I fall out of phase
Would you pull me back in orbit
Or come slide off the page?
If I wanted to stay
If I wanted to change
Would it fall apart around me
Would it all be erased?
Oh internal debates
An eternal malaise
I might be my own worst enemy
An awkward full case
